Since its launch alongside iOS 6 in September this year, the Apple Maps application has only to sow bad reviews everywhere and with reason. For now, the information presented in the mapping of the apple is very limited and misleading. But all this bad publicity, by the letter of apology to Tim Cook, CEO of the company, have done damage that has become the most used application in 2012, according to Nielsen, hearings meter par excellence.

Yes, we must keep in mind that Nielsen measured only data between January 2012 and October this year, so Google maps and 10 million downloads in 48 hours, did not come into play. Surely the ranking would be very different if it had been considered to Google Maps.

Elsewhere in the Nielsen rankings, which are the most prominent applications of the year, we find Facebook, YouTube, Stocks, Weather, Facebook Messenger, The Weather Channel, Twitter, Pandora Radio and Instagram.
